Ramanuja established himself in Tonnur and had. A large and beautiful lake constructed out of the waste materials of the despoiled Jaina shrines ; the lake exists to this 74 RAMANUJACHARYA. day and is called the moti talab or the lake of pearls. Ramanuja's stay in Mysore extended over near- ly 20 years. He succeeded in creating a strong and learned Vaishnavite community whose des- cendants exist to this day. He built the temple of Vishnu at Melukote or Tirunarajanapuram, a few miles north of My...sore, and established in it the God Narayana whose statue was discovered by him on the spot, from the revelations of a dream. He also recovered a copper idol, Rama- priya, of the same God, which he learned, also from a dream, to be with a Muhammadan princess at Delhi and procured it, after an arduous journey to that place. The panchamas of the place were of great help to him in this business and he as- signed them in gratitude certain limited rights of entry into the temple on fixed days, which privilege is enjoyed by them to this day.
